I was planning on picking up the game at Costco on Tuesday... but today I stopped by and asked about it and now I am not sure. The woman at the desk said "That's funny, we have 8 coming in for the PS3 but that's it. We don't have any shown for the 360." I am just hoping that the info she looked up is incorrect, any one else contact a Costco?

I dont see why they wouldn't get the 360 version. Call again tomorrow and check again.

Considering Best Buy is that minimum 12 or 16 or w/e 360s and minimum 2 PS3s its probably false.

Wow, did you not read? It's quite obvious that guy was biased and he even admitted to the minimum PS3 stock being 8, so your info is false. You shouldn't be accusing anyone else's info of being false.

Yea, I was plannin on calling tomorrow, and again Tuesday morning before I switch over to Best Buy or Target. Luckily, they are all in the same shopping mall.

Unless BB bought up all the 360 skus...

I was in Walmart and the guy had a similar response "Says we are getting PS3 versions but no 360" but that sounds odd to me. He also said there were none in the back, but I had been there the day before and a different clerk clearly said he had seen them in the stockroom, but wasn't allowed to sell them.

Well, maybe the woman just didn't know what she was talking about. I'd imagine somewhere like Costco would have a few 360 versions, seeing as they sell 360 stuff...

I work at Costco in St Louis Park in Minnesota and we have 2 palletts sitting in the back of our recieving dock that say on them "No sale until 11/20". We have 24 bundles total. Price wise it's the same as anywhere else.

Ohh man... I read rumors that they were gonna be 159.99 instead of 169.99.... that makes me just go straight to Best Buy now...

I just got off the phone with Costco, and they said they are expecting a shipment in, but don't know when. The man said they are charging 159.99 instead of 169.99. The website doesnt have a page for it yet, but if you search for Rock Band, it does show up for 159.99. He said to call tomorrow at 11:05 and see. It may be too late by then....

ive tried calling my costco but its like impossible to speak with somebody. the machine doesnt give me any choices that have anything to do with sales.

Mine doesn't go to a machine, someone helpful answers the phone each time... even if their information isn't always right...

Yea... they usually get games on Tuesday... I may just go there... I still dunno. It looks like they removed it from the website again.
